This is my 6th grow💪🏾. Up on deck is ILGM Big Bud Auto, MSNL White Widow, and MSNL Caramelicious. I also am growing some Anaheim Hot Chili Peppers (actual peppers) and some English Lavender.
I'm excited to see what happens with the Caramelicious, it is a second generation seed. I had a plant Hermie on my previous grow. I isolated it and allowed it to pollinate itself. I want to see if it's off spring will be a Hermie as well or if it turns out female. My fingers are crossed because I got tons of seeds from it.
The peppers and lavender are bonus grows. I figured why not learn to grow actual food as well. So I will be tracking their progress along with my ladies.
The first week went by well, I had one white widow sprout with helmut head that I had to help she'd, other than that everything has been smooth.
The lavender and peppers have not sprouted yet. They both are supposed to sprout with 14 to 28 days.

***UPDATE****
6/17/2022
I forgot to mention that I transplanted both Big Bud Auto Plants, well slightly transplanted. I started Big Bud #1 off in a 16 oz grow cup and #2 I started off in a peat moss pod. Initially I just put the entire cup/pod into a 5 gallon pot without removing them from the container they were in.
After a few days, I thought to myself "won't that restrict root growth somewhat?" so I took #1 out of the grow cup and transplanted directly into the soil in a 5 gallon and #2 I cut the white netting from around the peat moss pod and planted that directly into the soil in a 3 gallon pot.
***Update end***
Week 3 went by well. I'll admit I'm at the point where I've "been there done that" I don't pay as much attention to them and kind of let them do what they do.
I lst'd Big Bud Auto #1, she is the healthiest and most robust of the group currently.
Big Bud Auto #2 is sort of a runt compared to it's sister. I believe it may have to do to the fact that I started it in a peat moss pod and placed the entire pod into the soil.
Caramelicious 2nd generation #1 is a project of mine. One of my plants hermied on my last grow and pollinated itself. This is one of the seeds from that Hermie. I am curious to see if it hermies or is a female. Because after all isn't forcing a female to hermie and pollinate itself is how feminized seeds are made? Needless to say I got over 1000 seeds, so I'm hoping that they are feminized.
White Widow #3 popped up with severe helmut head, I tried my best to pull it off without damaging the plant, but ended up ripping a small piece of the tip of the plant. It is really small rn but seems to be growing. I'm curious to see how it grows.
Lastly but not least there has been no action with my lavender and my hot chili peppers.
I fed my ladies their first nutrients today. General Hydroponics Flora 3 part series. I mixed 1/4 ml into 3 gallons of water and ph'd it to 6.6 and fed each 1 liter.
Week 4 and still nothing with the Hot Chili Peppers or my Lavender, I planted them directly into soil on 5/28/22, packets say 7-28 days germinating for both so I guess I am still within that window.......just incase on 6/17/22 I put lavender seeds in the refrigerator (I read that it helps them germinate) and will let them sit for 30 to 45 days. I put a few pepper 🌶️ seeds in a wet paper napkin to see if I can get them to germinate. Hopefully they both sprout and I won't need the new ones.
My weed plants are doing great. WW#1 is in a 1 gallon, I could transplant but I want to see how much a 1 gallon will yeild without lst or special treatment
Big Bud #1 is in a 5 gallon and as you can see she has taken well to the lst and showing lots of colas.
BBA#2 is in a 3 gallon I also performed lst on her.
WW #2 is in a 3 gallon pot and I performed lst on her
WW #3 is a replant. I started her the same day the others, the first one had a severe case of helmet head and died when I tried pulling it off so I planted another one.......it too popped with the seed (helmet) still on......I partially tore the cotyledons when pulling off the shell, but she has survived and is thriving, she is 2 weeks behind the others.
Caramelicious 2 gen, is a project of mine. I had a plant Hermie on me last grow, don't ask me how but it only pollinated itself in a tent with 3 other ones.....(I got very lucky I guess).....this plant produced over 1000 seeds, I am going to let her veg. My other plants are all Autos, this one a photo, I have an 18/6 light schedule and plan on flipping to 12/12 once my autos are done, according to my research and what others say, it will produce another Hermie.....I guess I have to see for myself.
What's up fellow growmies! I hope all is well with your grows!
This week progressed like usual, they actually are starting to pre-flower and growing stigmas. Its like clock work with these autos July 1st marked a complete year in growing and each time I've grown autos they always start to transition to flower in week 5/6.
Its hard to believe it has been a complete year for me💪🏾 I have gained so much knowledge and received so much help from this community and I really appreciate it. It seems like yesterday I was frantically worrying about everything. Although I have much to learn I think I pretty much have it down to a science. This last year I have grown 4 different strains 2 times each.
On my current grow I have stopped obsessing over watering, one thing I am learning is that watering until run off is not really needed, unless you want to test the ppm/ph of said run-off, otherwise you are just wasting water.
I start off with 1 liter of water per plant, and as they grow I make my way up to 2 liters. It appears to be the sweet spot especially for the 5 gallon pots, after about 2 liters I start to see run-off in the 3gallon pots I see it after about 1.5 liters of water.
I am still using the General Hydroponics Flora Series trio, it has worked well for me. I always mix what the manufacturer recommends per gallon into a 3 gallon sprayer, so I am giving 1/3rd of the recommended dosage out of fear of nute burn or lockout.
I performed LST on both Big Bud Auto plants, and one of my White Widows, the other 2 White Widows I am letting grow naturally.
Stay tuned and Happy Growing!!!! 🤘🏾🤙🏾💪🏾
What's up fellow growmies!!! I hope all of your grows are going well.
Friday July 8th marked week #6 for my babies (Week #3 for White Widow #3), they all are doing very well at this point. It is week 2 really of flowering and I believe they have finally stopped stretching. The buds are really starting to develop.
I really have not changed up much other than the amount of nutrients that I am feeding them. I have decided that instead of 1/3rd of the manufacturers recommended dosage, I would move to giving them 1/2 of the recommended. They all are luscious and green and show no signs of nutrient burn.
I just low stressed trained White Widow #3 I waited a bit late to do it so I am eager to see how well she does especially being that she should start pre-flowering in 2 weeks.
The humidity is getting harder to keep in the range I want, mainly due to the amount of foliage in the tent. I probably should do some light defoliation however I'm one to let them fall off as the plant uses the nutrients and the leaf wilts away on its own.
Caramelicious is doing well, I planted her with the rest 5/28/22 however she is a photoperiod and has been vegging going on 2 months now. I plan on flipping the light schedule to 12/12 after all of my Autos finish, which according to the info provided on the strains should be around the first or second week in September. So she should have a good 3 months of vegging under her belt. I probably should have gone bigger with the pot size as I have her in a 5 gallon. I know I could flip the light schedule now due to the other ones being autos so they won't be impacted too much. However this seed comes from my last harvest, where the mother turned Hermie on me and pollinated itself. So according to genetics once I flip this one probably should Hermie as well, however I have to see it on my own. I'm hoping it doesn't.
I have White Widow #3 and Caramelicious on the same feeding schedule, I am feeding them an aggressive vegetation mixture of general hydroponics flora trio series, which calls for 3 ml of flora grow (green) 2 ml of flora macro (brown/burgundy) and 1 mil of flora bloom (pink) per gallon. I mix it into 2 gallon sprayer which means they are actually getting half of the recommended dosage.
Big Bud Auto #1, #2 and White Whidow #1 and #2 are on the same schedule I am feeding them an aggressive bloom mixture, 1 mil of flora grow, 2 mil of flora macro and 3 mil of flora bloom
I found that 2 liters of water is the sweet spot for this stage of growth. I plan on kicking it up to 3 liters per plant in the next week or 2. The pot size varies between 3 and 5 gallons and I have WW # 2 in a 1 gallon pot, surprisingly it is not showing any signs that the pot is too small and in fact is thriving.
What's good fellow growmies and growmettes I hope your grows are coming along like mine 🤟🏾.
Today marks week 7 over all and week 2 flowering.
I have them on the same feeding schedule and the are flourishing.
I planted some Broccoli on the 11th and it has sprouted. I will be observing and study the growing habits of the broccoli.
What's up growmies!!! Week 10 over all and week 5 in flower. 2 white widows and 2 big Bud Autos. 1 White Widow in week 2 of flowering and 1 Caramelicious 2nd generation still vegging.
Nothing really exciting to write about, they are doing what they do and coming along fantastically!!
I water every 3rd day so about twice a week. I have been super busy lately and haven't really been documenting their growth as closely as I normally do.
I'm still maxing out the amount of nutes I give them which is why the tips are beginning to show signs of nute burn.
The smell is scrum-cha-diddly-umptious!!! I can't wait to harvest, to bad I've stopped smoking (going on 2 months now) the middle of June. I may have to take these babies for a test run though 😁, but I doubt it, I am taking a serious tolerance break for 6 months to a year.
Other than that what more can I say other than these plants are awesome to grow.
I hope everyone is doing well with their grows, until next week, stay frosty my friends!!
What's good in the hood growmies!!! I hope all your grows are going well.
I missed week 8 and week 11 picture updates due to my busy schedule.
These pictures were taken Friday 8/19/22 which was the start of week 12, I finally got around to posting them today which is Monday 8/22/22.
Week 7 of flowering, everything is going as planned. I will give these babies the chop in a week maybe 2 max.
I have been feeding them every 3 day which seems to be when they need a refill. Starting this Friday, I will only feed them plan PH'd water until they get chopped that is my way of flushing them, I like to do it progressively rather than flush all at once.
It has been a very stress free experience for me, I feel like I have the game down pat as far as growing from seed. I still have my Caramelicious Feminized Photo mother plant vegging and growing and also White Widow#3 (which is 3 weeks behind the other White Widows) I just haven't been taking pictures of them.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope the plant goddesses grant you huge yeilds on your grows!!!
What's up Growmies!!! These babies will be getting the chop this weekend, which would put them in week 14 overall and week 9 in Flower.
It has been a smooth grow, not a lot of issues other than the tips getting burned, which is normal being that I pushed them to the max as far as the nutrients I fed them.
I made the mistake feeding White Widow #3 the same nutrients as the others even though it is 3 weeks behind and definitely overwhelmed her with nutrients hence the yellowing and brown leaves you see in the first part of the video.
The trichromes are exactly where I want them right now, mostly cloudy with about 25 to 30% amber. I'm guessing they will be at about 50/50 come Friday or Saturday when I give them the chop.
I flushed each one last night with 2 gallons of distilled water, I'm going to flush them once more today and then allow them to dry out.
My Caramelicious plant has been begging for 14 weeks and has grown all the way past the lights, I am going to top her today and cut away 4 or 5 nodes. Once I have these ones chopped and out of the tent.
All in all this has been a smooth grow and I can't wait to test the final product.
Thanks for tuning in and like always, I wish you all good luck on your grows and may the plant goddesses grant you huge yeilds!!!
Easy strain to grow, it is true to it's name and grows some big buds. You will need to tie them up or use a trellis to keep them from dropping.
Overall I am satisfied with my results with over 2 ounces per plant.
Another easy strain to grow. She stretches like crazy during flowering so LST is a must for indoor growing. She grew very fat and way more dense buds than Big Bud Auto I am very pleased with the yeild with over 120 g's on the scale. Between both strains I yeilding a little over 8.5 oskies, roughly 2+ oz per plant give or take. This particular strains is one of my favorites!
710 genetics have an auto strain called stilton , it's the best producing auto I've grown and has an old school uk cheese smell and taste ,, worth a try if you can get it .
Great job 💎
